Play As Luigi on New Super Mario Bros. DS
In New Super Mario Bros, are you sick and tired of always playing as Mario? Well, that changes now - just follow these simple instructions and you will be able to play as Luigi in New Super Mario Bros anytime you want to be him!
Steps
- Set up and start the game normally.
- Many people say you must beat this game in order to unlock Luigi, but that is untrue because you can do this anytime at all, even when you start the first level of the game.
- Get to the file selection screen but do not choose a game yet.
- If you just go ahead and pick a game without following these instructions, you will not be able to play as Luigi, so do not choose a game yet.
- Press and hold down the L and R buttons simultaneously.
- Whilst holding down those buttons, press A to start the game and then let go of the buttons.
- If you let go of the L and R buttons before you press A, you will not be able to play as Luigi, so press A whilst holding L and R.
- Have fun playing New Super Mario Bros as Luigi!
- If you hear Luigi saying his name in the background, you have done the task correctly. If not, try again until you hear him.
Tips
- Luigi is not locked in - you will have to do this every time for the trick to work.
- You don't need to start over - the character doesn't change the game at all.
